I know, I know, I’ve been way behind on posting … but here’s a little bit of what my lens has been looking at lately.

Here’s to 2016! (And hopefully a lot more pictures)

Only 4 1/2 months old and already a heart breaker.

Today, I got to meet the newest member of the family, Eleanor. Suffice it to say, I am in love with this little angel.

This is the part where My Wonderful Man who I get to say “I do” to in 31 days caught the garter. You rock, babe.

First night out shooting with the Nikon D300s on loan from the office … I’d say it went pretty well.

The man and I took a drive out to Lake Berryessa this weekend. Nothing cures a hectic week like fresh air, sunshine, good tunes and a Saturday drive. Once we got to the lake, we decided to keep going and eventually wound up in Rutherford and, since it was lunch time, hit up the Rutherford Grill.

Best. French. Dip. Sandwich. Ever.

Here are a few of the sights along the way. Jason gets major points for pulling over when he spotted the tree with the blossoms on it while I was on the phone with the office — “I thought you might want to take a picture of it … ”

He gets me.
